Kelley School of Business

Students certified to earn a bachelor’s degree in the College of Arts and Sciences who have already completed 26 or more credit hours of college course work that count toward graduation may obtain the minors listed below from the Kelley School of Business by successfully completing the business course work given for each. Any course in which the student receives a grade below C– may not be used to fulfill a minor requirement. An overall grade point average of 2.000 is required to earn each minor. All 300- and 400-level course work must be completed on the Bloomington campus. None of the course work may be taken by independent study/correspondence, distance education, or “Courses to Go.” The College of Arts and Sciences limits the number to 22 credit hours outside the College that will count toward a degree. Students who are unclear about these rules should check with the College Recorder’s Office, Kirkwood Hall 001. Students may apply online for the Minor in Business on the College Recorder’s Office Web site (college.indiana.edu/recorder).

Apparel Merchandising and Telecommunications have established their own requirements for a minor in business; students majoring in those areas should consult with their major advisor.
